Traceability and Compliance

X-Smart Light is an advanced component tracking system that digitizes material management in SMT production using Pick-by Light technology. It automatically enforces FIFO – FEFO rules and prevents material management error.

Traceability is provided by recording every material used, every step taken, and all data related to each operation.

The system enables manufacturers to increase operational speed, accuracy, and traceability, while supporting lean automation, maximizing space efficiency, and meeting strict industry-specific quality requirements.

In electronics manufacturing, compliance with aerospace, automotive, defence, and IPC standards is not just a requirement — it is a key factor that provides a competitive advantage.

Why X-Smart Light?

  • Faster component selection without error
  • 100% traceability — covering components, operations, users, environment, and cabinet conditions
  • User-friendly interface with minimal training requirements
  • Lower investment cost and quick integration into existing workflows
  • Minimized cost-per-reel
  • Easy access to components even during power failures or system downtime
  • Modular and retrofit-friendly design — smart shelves can be added later
  • Scalable configurations tailored to component volume and customer needs
  • Flexible layout for installation between lines and optimized space usage

Intelligent Light Guidance

The system utilizes LED lights for efficient inventory management. The green light indicates the correct shelf position and selection of the material from the correct address on the shelves. The blue light confirms the selection, while the red light indicates errors. Warnings are communicated to operators through auditory, visual, and email notifications to ensure efficient material management.
